93 to 96 exhaust question?

I have a 93 z28 that i bought exhaust for before i could even get it on i wrecked it. Well i bought Mac mids with slp loudmouth with the instal kit. I bought a 96 z28 will that exhaust work? I think it will all line up and everything but what about the smog stuff? also if i run no cat wouldnt that make my computer mad? I had a 93 so this was never a problem.

as far as i know, yes it should line up, (if you bought everything the same:for a 93) as far as o2's screwing with your computer, just buy o2 simulators, you can get them for about 100bucks for the pair and they'll trick your computer to think that they're there and working fine

Thought O2 sims were cheaper if thats what itd cost do yourself a favor check out madz28.com saver tune for $75 you can get the rear O2's deleted and 3 other items. Taken from madz28.com : $75 -- Programming for all 96-97 LT1 and LT4 cars. The "Saver" Package includes any 4 items of the following: Remove Skip Shift, Adjust Rev Limiter, Lower Fan Kick On Temperature, Adjust Speed Limiter, Disable Any Code(s), Disable VATS, Adjust for different tire/gear size, knock retard desensitizing, disable rear o2 sensors. Please add a core charge (Item #8) if you would like to exchange PCMs.

haha, forgot about that, yes, that would definitely be a better route to go, even get the full computer tune while you're at it and get some extra 10-15rwhp out of it. don't know what i was thinking

Just put o2 sims on it and hollow out your cat. I run no cats and o2 sims and it sounds great and runs great too

The AIR plumbing is different on 93s than later cars, you will run into a problem there.
